This study aimed to explore the formal technology-related professional development opportunities available for physical education teacher education (PETE) faculty. The study involved a series of sequential steps: 1) conference identification, 2) session identification, 3) Teacher Educator Technology Competencies (TETCs) mapping, and 4) TETCs frequency counts. Between 2018 and 2021, a total of 135 technology-related sessions were delivered across 14 conferences hosted by four organizations. The most frequently addressed competency was TETC #3, which focuses on developing knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to teaching with technology, appearing 131 times. Although the extent to which PETE faculty attend the sessions found in this study is still unknown, it is crucial to ensure these types of sessions are offered so PETE faculty have the opportunity to enhance their own TETCs and, therefore, the professional digital competence of their teacher candidates and soon-to-be in-service teachers.
